WHO are We?
The Frederick Giving Project is a group of extraordinary people (hey – that’s you, too) looking to improve their community and inspire more giving.
WHAT do we do?
We pool charitable contributions and talents to give support to local small or emerging nonprofits that are doing great work in the community.
HOW do we do it?
We have the notion that philanthropy can be a playful, social activity – perhaps even slightly irreverent.
- Events – Are there better ways than BBQs, bowling, happy hours and a little good-natured mayhem to raise money for charity?
- Service Projects – We plan joint days of service where all of us can pitch in and make a difference.
- Membership – For only $99 a year, you can make your mark as a philanthropist and a community leader.
Add it up - At the end of the year, we add it all up, accept applications from nonprofits, vote, and make a combined grant to a local Frederick County nonprofit and the people they serve.
